I also want to add my physician (functional medicine) is who started me regimen; not me. The only things I've added before talking with her have been Increased dosage of fish oil, which she agreed with at a followup visit.

The DHEA I take doesn't contain soy. It may have been derived from soy like vitamin C may be derived from oranges, for example. I am hypothyroid and don't eat soy. No problems after decades of use. I am very lucky to have a top rated Beverly Hills endocrinologist who has other doctors as patients, so I know I am in good hands. If you live in a small town with one doctor, you may be stuck.

Otherwise my guess would be because you were eating too few calories, you developed the distended belly you see on starving people in Third World countries.

Actually, my problem isn't my stomach, I've just gained a lot of weight. Although I'm sure that would be too few calories long term, I would think I would have lost weight initially. I have had difficulty with weight loss resistance most of my life and have only been able to get my weight down a time or two with no idea why I lost or why I eventually gained it back.
All I was trying to say was that not everyone will have the same results doing the same thing. I know it is frustrating to deal with weight gain and not be successful and I don't want anyone here getting too down on themselves. Easier said than done, I know.

Seriously! My aunt thought she was just eating too much so had indigestion all the time but found out she had colon cancer and an abdomen riddled with tumors. Sadly, she went to the doctor a little too late. So never assume anything when it comes to your health.

I need to ask that everyone drop the supplement topic or I will have to close the thread.
